Can Smoking Cannabis Cause An Eating Disorder?

Hello, My daughter is, well I believe to be unhealthy. She is 20 years of age,5 7 and weighs 100lbs. I believe she may have an eating disorder. She at one time was smoking pot to help with her anxiety and has since stopped smoking , but during the time she was smoking it she became dependent on it and now has in her head that she needs it to eat. What can I do to help her?
